Travel Nurse Salary - How does Travel Pay Work?

The news is out: Traveling nurses get paid substantially more for their services than traditional healthcare staff. Plus... they get significant tax advantages!

So, how does a “travel nurse salary” work? Well, for starters, a travel nurse doesn't necessarily get paid a salary. An allied or travel nurse will get paid an hourly rate plus a housing and food stipend. The hourly rate is a taxable rate that will get reported on your W-2. However, the stipend is non-taxable and those funds are added to your paycheck after all taxes have been deducted (and does not get included on your W-2 from us). The result is a “take-home pay” amount that is significantly higher than staff nurse colleagues who only have a taxable wage (up to twice the take-home pay amount!) How a travel nurse agency reports your earnings is a big deal - remember to ask the question and read the research. It'll make a big difference!

Staffing agencies serve as a liaison between hospital sites with an urgent need for healthcare workers, and nurses who are open to travel. At Phoenix MedStaff, we care about our nurses and techs. We prioritize your well-being with pay that is not just competitive, but far exceeds the industry standard!
